Current districts and representatives
List of members of the United States House delegation from Tennessee, their terms, their district boundaries, and the district political ratings according to the CPVI. The delegation has a total of 9 members, with 8 Republicans, and 1 Democrat.
The Tennessee congressional maps are an example of partisan gerrymandering, in this case by the Republican-controlled state legislature, which in 2022 drew maps to ‘crack’ the Democratic stronghold of Nashville across three otherwise Republican districts, ensuring three Republican representatives, despite Nashville’s strong Democratic lean and population sufficient for a single district.[1] This Republican gerrymander ‘diminished the influence of Black voters and other voters of color concentrated in Nashville’, by splitting them up and adding portions of the Nashville community into districts that are overwhelmingly white and Republican, thus diluting the voting power of Black voters in the state.
